Would you walk into a no frills clinic and have them do major by-pass heart surgery on you??? Of course you would not. Then why would you get help on major financial decisions and buy through these low level sales people at brokerage firms or bank branches when these sales people won't even be around in a couple of years??? How many so called advisors have you dealt with the last few years at these same firms??? They are NOT paid on how well they advise you and how you do with that advice... They are paid on how much they sell to you. They only last a few years because their firms believe that they are not selling enough investments to you or not enough of the investments those firms want their advisors to sell to you this year. That decision has nothing to do with how well the investments they sold to you in the past have performed.

Take a Look at Interest Rate History all the way back to 1919 and compare in your mind where Rates were to Actual Events in History (Interest Rate Source the Federal Reserve):

Market Interest Rate History -1919 to Present:Long Term Aaa & Baa rated Corporate Bonds. Proof that the BUBBLE in Interest Rates is now over. This bubble was caused by the U.S. Government's economic & tax policies of the mid 60's through 1981. The beginning of the end started in 1981 when a dramatic change in economic & tax policy occurred. This process of eliminating Inflationary Premiums in bond & debt pricing took about 23 Years to unwind. We are now back in the NORMAL HISTORICAL RANGE for Interest Rates where Aaa Corporate bonds Peak at around 5.50% (Pre 1968) and with Lows possible at Sub 3.00%. This Normal Historical Range will last for as long as the markets are confident that the # 1 Priority of the Federal Reserve is and will continue to be Low Inflation.

Sorry, the Federal Reserve changed the way they deliver the rates in May 2011. You can still get the Rates by clicking what you need above and then copy and paste the 2nd link that appears into your browser address bar. It is now in down load Excel form and not a web page.
